23.01.2022 Shells, 2019 Recently, my partner and I celebrated 7 years together and I learned that in that time our bodies have regenerated every cell, muscle and organ. So we are totally different people, figuratively and literally than when we met. This is why 7 year cycles are revered in many cultures, including my cultural roots of Hinduism where creating, sustaining and destroying is seen as a constant cycle. Inspired by beach combing, this painting explores what stays, transforms... and is left behind as we ever change and grow . . . #oilpainting #triptych #conceptualart #surrealistart #australianart #painter #inspiredbynature #australianartists #createhappy #artsita See more
